In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe
to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and
wonderful things in existence. 1t is
easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food, bad cookery, mental worry,
late hours, irregular habits, and many
other things which ought not to be,
have made the American people a
nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has
done a wonderful work in reforming
this sad business and making the
American people so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals and be happy.
Remember NO happiness with
out health. But. Green's August
Flower brings health and happiness
to the dyspeptic. Ask your drug
gist for bottle. Seventy-tive cents.

The Japanese.

Putnams Magazine
Take the Japanese, as a whole,
high and low, rich and poor, they
are the best fed, best clad, best lodged,
least overworked, and most genial
and happy people on the face of the
earth.
Food is abundant and cheap-im-
aginary wants rare; and that temp
tations to crime are less than with
us, though the land is no Utopia.
There is no such thing as squalor
to be seen in Japan. In the house OF
the very poorest, a Fifth Avenue
belle might sit upon the matted floor
without soiling her dress. The
streets are admirably severed i; all of
fal and garbage are removed fol-
manure.
There is no bigotry. The people
are wonderfully open-minded. There
is no hatred of Christianity as such
only it is feared as an engine to cause
political changes.

A New Fish in the Cumberland.

Tennessee Globe.
For several days before the rise in
the river, immense schools of fish
have peen going up the Cumberland.
These fish are something new in
these waters, and measure in length
from 8 to s inches, are white under
the belly and black on top of the back,
with mouth like that of buffalo. The
oldest fisherman is unable to name
the finny tribe to which they belong.
They have been seen at number of
places between the Huntsville land
ing and mouth of Rocky Creek. Mr..
Fits Store and j. s. Watson viewed
the movements of this finny tribe,
and say they have been pouring by
for three consecutive days, in unbrok-
en- line, three to four feet wide, and
that nothing whatever frightens
them. Some have waded out into
the line of their march in the river,
no hook, line or bate being necessary,
but with the open hand in a short
while would catch any quantity de-
sired. One old fellow more greedy
than the rest, resorted toa spade, and
shoveled them out upon the shore by
the spadeful, like a teamster would
shovel gravel into his wagon.

Where Sea Birds Get Water.


The oft-asked question: Z" Where
do sea birds obtain fresh water to
Stake their thirst ?" is probably cor
rectly answered by an old skipper,
who says that he has frequently seen
these birds far from any land that
could furnish them water, lowering
around and under storm cloud, chat
tering like ducks on a hot day at a
pond, and drinking in the drops of
rain as they fell. They will smell a
rain squall 100 miles or even further,
and scud for it with almost incon-
ceivable swiftness. They can prob
ably go long time without water.

Salt a Factor in Building.

The American Architect asserts
that one of the new building materials
which is likely to be found useful in
many ways is common salt. Among
the carpenters sail is now found to be
useful as an aid to the heating of glue.
Where, as is usual in joiners' and
cabinet makers shops, the glue is
melted in jacket kettle, surrounded
by water in the outer kettle. The
addition of salt rises the boiling point,
and, therefore, allows the glue in the
kettle to be kept at higher temper
allure than could be maintained with
water alone, and this is advantageous
to the work. The masons find their
use for salt in adding it to cement
mortar in cold weather, to preserve
it from the bad effects of freezing. 1t
is not quite clear why the salt should
act in this way, as the beneficial re-
suits OF using 1t are visible with NOR
tar which has certainly been frozen,
and frozen salt water expands nearly
as much as fresh water. But engin-
GERS and contractors who have tried
it are unanimous in their opinion of
its value. In many cases masonry
has been laid in cement in cold
weather, using a considerable pro-
portion of salt in the mixture, which,
after repeated freezing and thawings,
has remained in perfect condition,
while work near by laid in mortar OF
the same kind, but without salt, has
been disintegrated by the frost.

Roadside Planting.


The subject of securing shade for
roads by planting trees at their sides
has within a few years been receiving
considerable attention in Europe. In
Belgium especially the work has been
taken up with much interest, and the
economic results ascertained. Each
tree in that country is estimated at a
cost of Is. 3d., or about 60 cents of
American money. This seems a
pretty high figure for a European
country, yet further estimates go to
prove that such planting is a most
profitable investment. Since 1881 it
is claimed that the trees planted have
increased to several times the value
of the capital invested in them.
Larch, spruce, and fir were largely
used in these Belgian plantations.
At the Manchester meeting, in the
present year, of the British Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science,
the subject of forestry was discussed,
and tree culture was strongly recon-
mended to the English farmers. In
this country the subject of forest pres
ervation is studied more every year
and legislation is applied to saving
our woods, and it is to be hoped thai
very beneficial results will follow the
work already in hand. But in pre-

Miss Flatfoot, a blithesome maiden

For ninety years she had smoked a
